When using the latest version@google-cloud/[email protected], a runtime warning appears:

(node:99526) [DEP0040] DeprecationWarning: The `punycode` module is deprecated. Please use a userland alternative instead.
(Use `node --trace-deprecation ...` to show where the warning was created)

The fundamental problem is that google-cloud/storage latest version is pinned to gaxios 6.x which has a dependency on punycode.

gaxios 7.x does not have a dependency on punycode anymore.

Would it be possible to migrate to gaxios 7.x to eliminate this dependency?

Users have reported this in the gemini-cli repository, which has a dependency on this library: https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli/issues/8405
